Subject
Prehospital emergency nurses’ competence progress
Description
Worldwide, psychiatric conditions, self-harm, behavioral disorders, and alcohol and drug abuse are quite prevalent and pose difficult challenges for alarm operators and ambulance personnel in assessing, triaging, treating, and referring patients with various mental illnesses [1–2]. Emergency calls to alarm operators because of mental health crises have increased and account for 40% of all incoming calls to emergency medical services [3]. In a Swedish study of 6712 patients performed by the prehospital emergency medical services, psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse were the next most common known diagnoses after circulatory diagnoses [4].
